Class Calendar

Knitting Groups: Fridays 5-7 p.m. From May through August Knitting Groups only meet the first Friday of the month at this time. We still close at 6 pm though, so feel free to come sit and knit before that.

Knitting groups are free & open to all, ages 18+. Bring your knitting or crochet and be prepared to laugh a lot.

Some class codes to help you determine if you have the skills for this class: B = Beginner, Is ready to learn to Knit or Crochet, AB = Advanced Beginner, should know how to cast on and knit, but maybe not much else I= Intermediate (should know knit, purl and increases and decreases), A=Advanced, should know the basic skills and have knit a few more complicated projects. Yarn and supplies for classes should be purchased at the store - learning is so much easier and more enjoyable when you are working with good materials. For beginning knitting and crochet classes please choose yarns that are smooth textured and solid, light colored. Class descriptions below the schedule will give you more information too.

If you are interested in signing up for a class, stop by the store ahead of time or give us a call at (615) 217-4966 to reserve your spot and pay your fees. Private lessons are also available at $30/hour. Supplies for the classes are not included in the cost unless so stated. We require that that you buy supplies for classes here at the store unless otherwise stated. Using the appropriate yarn and tools makes learning a more successful and satisfying experience. Registration for classes requires payment at time of sign up. If you have a group of folks who want to learn to knit, crochet or do other fibery things, let us know and we can set up classes for groups of 4 or more.

If you want to learn to knit with an individual lesson, we strongly recommend starting with an hour lesson. 30 minutes is rarely long enough to pick up very much if you've never knit before.

Cancellation Policy: Please be sure you can attend before signing up for class. If you can notify us a week before class of the need to cancel, you may be given credit for the cost towards another class. Under a week, credit will only given if another student can be found to fill the space. There is no refund for missed classes. No makeup classes are given and teachers are not permitted to meet away from the store for makeup classes. Classes that don't make (have at least 3 participants) will be canceled and of course we will refund the fee or you have the option of applying it to an individual lesson or another class..
